A functional group tolerant cobalt-catalyzed method for the intermol. hydrofunctionalization of alkenes with oxygen- and nitrogen-based nucleophiles is reported. This protocol features a strategic use of hypervalent iodine(III) reagents that enables a mechanistic shift from conventional cobalt-hydride catalysis. Key evidence was found supporting a unique bimetallic-mediated rate-limiting step involving two distinct cobalt(III) species, from which a new carbon-heteroatom bond is formed. The results came from multiple reactions, including the reaction of 5-Hexen-1-ol(cas: 821-41-0Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks)
5-Hexen-1-ol(cas: 821-41-0) is used in cyclization to a tetrahydropyran by phenylselenoetherification. It is also used as a building block in synthetic chemistry.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks
